IXL Permanent Skill Code
Every skill in IXL has a permanent skill code that you can use to have students practice specific skills. We encourage teachers to assign skills but since you don’t have a teacher account, you can just have students look up the permanent skill code.
Just find a skill and hover over it. You will see the Skill ID on the upper right and a preview of questions. Then have your student(s) look up those 3 letter and number ID and have them start practicing! Don’t know what skills to use? Keep reading👇
